It's one of the most memorable moments in the history of women's sports: After burying her penalty shot to lift the U.S. over China in the final of the 1999 World Cup, a joyful Brandi Chastain ripped off her shirt and dropped to her knees, touching off a raucous celebration in a sold-out Rose Bowl.
It was more than just a victory for the sports bra though. After capturing their second World Cup in three tries, the U.S. women thought they would never lose again.
"We were planning on winning the one right after that. The motto was 'win forever,'" remembers goalkeeper Briana Scurry.
